It is also much larger, so it might be difficult to perpetrate a heist. In fact, the Starbucks employees did physically move the rack from another location. Of course, sitting in a coffee shop allows someone to occasionally glance at her/his bike.Stevennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37888568.post-8234780404685945632009-09-08T12:21:01.420-05:002009-09-08T12:21:01.420-05:00It is like a hitching post, just throw a rope arou...It is like a hitching post, just throw a rope around it and it shouldn't run off.Ed Stockwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17351620930541421376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37888568.post-86100272993387453632009-09-08T11:50:11.697-05:002009-09-08T11:50:11.697-05:00Yeah, same thing at the Cosentino's Market in ...Yeah, same thing at the Cosentino's Market in Brookside.

I go to this bank in the early morning, when it is closed, so I just take my bike into the lobby and use the ATM. I'm going to pen a note to them about how happy I am they are providing this service. Maybe we should take a lesson from your lead, and do this every time we see a business which has provided secure parking for bikes.BluesCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14131717718194330990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37888568.post-33453016646254440732009-09-08T07:36:39.725-05:002009-09-08T07:36:39.725-05:00Huh, see I don't have any problems at our Hen ...Huh, see I don't have any problems at our Hen House (135th & Blackbob). Then again, they don't have bike racks at all. I just walk my bike into the store and use a reusable grocery bag in my Wald folding basket.<br /><br />The only thing approaching hassle I've gotten was the cashier chuckling and saying "I guess you don't need sacks, then?"Josh Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03969306131489466113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37888568.post-55762093489715949632009-09-07T20:44:56.557-05:002009-09-07T20:44:56.557-05:00Hopefully the powers-that-be at the Hen House, or ...Hopefully the powers-that-be at the Hen House, or the property managers, will accommodate your requests. We had a similar issue when bike racks started showing up at our workplace. Now, they are nicely secured into the concrete. It took asking for it, though.kGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14572371287751503718noreply@blogger.com
